Author's Note: Heh. What to say? This author's note might get to be longer than the entire fic. :p  First up, a big thanks to ncruuk.  Her comments not only pointed out some stylistic choices I hadn't thought about before, but also kept me laughing through the whole thing. I actually enjoyed the whole editing process. I don't think that's every happened to me before.

Second of all, if you think you've read this fic before, you would be right.  I started this fic in March of  '06 and wrote the first three parts before I got stuck and stopped writing it. I always meant to come back to it, but it just never quite worked out. When I realized it was the last fic I had to complete to finish fanfic100 I decided it was really time to buckle down. Plus I rather like the symmetry of this being the first fic I started for fanfic100 and the last I finished.  

The first three parts are where the fic stalled out, but they've been re-written in parts and just now beta'd for the first time.  After that, it's all new!
